What I personally like to do is start another BOINC instance and assign work to 1 or 2 CPU.
Or what I do in Windows use WSL to start another BOINC instance.

If I try to abort a whole bunch of task it doesn't seem to work any sugestions where to look.

Strange, not really.
Local or remote machine?

I'd assumed the task itself reported a time, and Boinc or Boinctasks divided the processing time by the wall time.  So you're saying Boinc or Boinctasks receives a % from the OS (like you see in task manager), and uses that along with the time the task has run for, to calculate the processing time?  Something somewhere (not in the OS) must be then dividing by the number of cores in avg_ncpus, but it's using an integer and assumed nobody would ever set fractional cores.  Under 1 core is odd I admit, but it's feasible to set say 6.5 cores in an 8 core task which uses an average below what it's capable of.

I think tasks are assigned to any CPU not a fixed one and may even transfer to another CPU.
A 24 core machine can and will run way more than 27 tasks.....
But the more tasks you run the more the CPU has to switch between tasks making things less efficient.

2.1 should resolve most problems.
The header width adjust is still open. https://github.com/efmer/boinctasks-js/issues
Tip: To adjust the header, make all other rows smaller.

I wonder if <avg_ncpus>0.7</avg_ncpus> does anything besides showing on the screen.
BoincTasks shows the actual run % reported by the OS to the Boinc Client -> BoincTasks.
70 min out of 100 min = 70% 100 min out of 100 min = 100%.
0.7 = expected run time 70%.

The CPU calculates these numbers. 0.7C is just an estimate and the real fraction may be something else.

6) Click on Nr to sort first first of last first.

4) You can suspend a range, click on the first one and shift click on another one.
To suspend all go to the project tab and suspend.
To suspend everything, use snooze on the icon. Or Extra -> Allow

Added to the todo list

Suspend on Checkpoint is the single most important advantage of using BoincTasks.
I can't find it on 2.0. Please add it.

Added to the list on GitHub.

03:15:45 (02:46:40) 85.14
The fist number is the clock time, the second () the CPU run time.
Non of this is BoincTasks controlled.
           

The % is a BOINC thing, BoincTasks uses time and cpu time.
It might go beyond 100%, you might want to try setting config.xml and restart BoincTasks.
C:\Program Files\eFMer\BoincTasks\

<config>

4) Works fine on my computer.
6) Select computer and project on the side bar (view-> check sidebar computer.

It may take a while before I have time to work on this.

I added it to my list, but it will take a while before I can work on it.

Ok, let me know if you find anything.

Have a nice time,

Fred
